Jefferson Davis.
The news of Jefferson Davis'death,
which reached here ou Friday, quickened
the beat of hearts, brought tears
to eyes, and bowed heads in sorrow.
Jjove for him fonnd an abiding placi j
not only ^in the se*t of affection of ;
those who knew him as the great !
statesman in actual service and who [
knew him as the President of the j
Confederacy; but the babes of the j
Confederacy, taught at their mothers' j
knees to revere his name and to cherish
with prijle the greatness of the great
leader of their fathers, in the cause of
their country, uncover their heads as
the spirit of t'\e chieftain passes into
eternity, one of the noblest, grandest
and most brilliant statesmen the j
Americau continent ha* ever given
birth to. Ills name, his unblem- .
ished character, ami his principles !
will live and will be held in sacred j
memory as long as a spot of earth }
is left by the great Creator on that!
part of tie earth that marks the Con- j
federate States. Long after the
bodies of the actors in the war shall
have turned to dust, bis memory will
be harbored in the hearts of their
children, and their children's children,
with an increase of hearts with the }
ushering in of each generation. He '
a J
has erected ito his own memory a
monument that will stand the test of
ages. Thanks to God t'was hi?,
though his back was bent with age, to
have ha'l an intellect strong enough,
a chirac:er pure enough, espoused
principles firm enough, to have defended
himself, hi> cause and hi* peo- j
pie, even in old ago, against every j
attack or misrepresentation. Loim
afier the cankering worms shall have
consumed the flishof hiscolurnniatois,
his name will be fostered by million?. !
Honor Him.
A mass meeting of the citizens of
Winnshoro will be held in ?he Court
House to-day to pay respect to the
memory of the illustrous. Jefferson
Davis* the martyr of Lis and our cause,
"the inau without a country," yet a
hero worshipped by a weeping nation.
He that was wise in" council, powerful
in war, raauly in defeat, dignified in
the clankering chains of prison, and
great now in tbe cold arms of death,
is a fit subject to stir the uoblest, purest
and highest emotions, sentiments and
thoughts of his countrymen. The
Confederacy has vanished?wc can
scarcely eav slie died. The doctrines
of government defended by the great
logical powers and by the deep wisdom
of statecraft of Calhoun and
\ Davis are as immoital as these two,
names themselves. Even the fate of
war cau uever suppress their principles
of . government. They are the
embodiment of liberty; like the great
central tire of the earth they are irrepressible;
though the mountains weigh
down upon it, and oceans and s^as
surge over it, yet its unconquerable
mid vehement force will heave out.
Unprejudiced history, unalloyed with
hate and veuoui, will hand down to
posterity the name of Jefferson Davis,
as far a? man can be, as an archetype
of parity, dignity and manliness.
lie stood alone against the powers
of a mighty nation. All the venom
of zealots and fanatics was hurled
against his noble brow; he suffered
the humiliation of the prison wall*;
he bore it all wiih ourage and diarnijy.
He did it all for the country we love.
We know of no one in all history who
has stood with such tenacity to his
convictions, in young manhood he
^ _ espoused his irrefutable principles, in I
middle life his great voice was heard j
proclaiming them, and when nature,
liiitt U7ifh nlil ncrp. Ill* ll>Pfl hi*
pen iu their defense.
His great soul has now been "whispered
oat by the still voice of God", and
it becomes onr sacred duty to hold a
mass meeting to-day, unprecedented
iu the history of Winnsboro.
Let the veterans of the great civil
struggle be therej whose wise leader
he was; let the young men be there,
who are to be factors in perpetuating
the name of the great leader of their
fathers; let the worsen be there,
whose soft hearts melt in sympathy
for the widow and "the child of
the Confedracy let the little children
be there, that thftv may learn to
cherish the name of the grand old man
and know that, if their fathers were
traitors, to be a traitor is noble.
From the recent elections held in the
State and the adoption of the resolutions
of tnc Charleston clergy iu
favor of high license, it would seem
that the i eople have began to entertain
some donbt as to the policy and
expediency of prohibition.
How inconsistent is our Legislature!
Its policy as formulated by its opening
work is retrenchment, and reform.
On Wednesday, one hundred and
sixty-five bills for a second reading,
5 passed and one killed! Curtail,
legislators, the enormous cost of "useless,
frivolous legislation before you

CongreK*
Congress met in Washington on j
Morilay, and was organized by the I
election of Mr. Reed, of Maine, as .
speaker. There being a Republican j
majority, small though it be, it was j
6xpected that a member of that house-j
hold of faith wonlil be selected, and j
this great party again gave an exhi-1
bition of its nt.'er incapacity to rise !
above the narrow plants of sectional-j
ism by chosing one of its mo>t rank j
partisans speaker. Mr. lieed is aj
very clever, brigli; mm, but hi* hatred I
of those of his fellow-citizens whose '
good fortune it is to dwell south of
Mason and Dixon's line and vote the
Democratic ticket pO warps hiui that
he may be considered one of the most
intense partisans in the Republican
party in Congress- He is ulso a great
partisan in the fact ions of his own par! y.
taking a partisan view of all questions.
Could Mr. Reed divert himself of his'
; narrow lies*, he would possess the ele-.
| ments of a great man, but it is scarcely
to be hoped that he will do so as he
declared in his opening remarks that
the duties of his new position "are
largely political."
Alon*j with Mr. Reed all of the
caucus nominees were electcd, except
Rev. Ramsdell, who had received the
nomination for Chaplain. It seems
that his defeat was brought about be
cause his wire is a uamouc, inougn a
devout and good woman. In this
Congress showed itself not ranch
better than the cotton Mathers of the
early daya of this great country, when
good people v^cre burned for witches.
It would have been much more to the
credit of the Democrats had they voted
for the Republican nominee for this
iion-pol it ic&l ofilce than to have lent!
themselves to the defeat of a good man
because his wife is a Catholic.
That Dr. Mi'.bnrn was retained was
a good thi:??r, and the people of
Winnsboro will be glad to hear that
the ' blind preacher" who lcctured so
eloquently to them a few years ago
will be in charge of the religious service;!
of the National Legislature, but
it is a pity that he should have been
elected simplv because^is opponent's
wife is a Catholic.
In the drawing for seats our Congressman.
W. H. Perry, got first pick,
and is nnder the shadow of the great
tariff reformer Carlisle. Our other
Congressmen got good positions on the
floor. The Republicans have a small
majority in the House and the Democrats
have placed themselves under the
leadership of Mr. Carlisle, who will,
with his large minority, be a powerful
check on the tide of the people in their
fi<?ht against the "bloated infants" of
protection.
The Salary OneatlaH.
In the discussion of the salary led
net ion bill now before the Legislature,
it will not do to say we can
gel a Governor or Secretary of State
for so many dollars less than we are
now giving these officer*. If that
lice is pursued let (he offi:e3 be {fat
up at auction and given 10 the man
who will do the work lor the least
sum. There arc some people who
would take the job for $500 and food
and clothes, and in. thc.?c hard limes
perhaps ihe food and clothes would
be all asktid. These officers represent
the State of South Carolina and we
feel Mtie that the people want io give
enough to permit tiiein to keep tip the
respectability and dignity of the State.
TS.e correct method of fixing the
amounts paid the heads of the State
departments, is to consider how much
is necessary for the incumbents to get
in order to live creditably to the State.
These officers cannot iire as cheaply
as private citizens. There arc many
demands upon them for charities etc..
which do not reach private citizens,
and then they must subscribe to every
thing that comes along and that takes
money.
Again, how would the "auctioning
out" of the clerkship* in some of the
offices do; for instance, the Comptroller
General's or State Treasurer's.
We feel satisfied that there are about
10.000 people in the State who would
take the Chief Clerk's place in the
Comptroller Generals office for $o00
a year, but of what experience or capability
arc I hey, or in what condition
would the many settlements with the
County Treasurer's be, if examined by
$50o book-keepers? Do our Legislators
think the State would save
money by ti?i? reduction? About the
same expettness is required in these
i <rlprks)iins as is necessary in bank
cashier?, and we venture ihe opinion
| that there is not a cashier in the State
who does not receive at least $1500 a
, year, and many $1800 and $2500. A
srood test is what do private enterprises
pay tor the same kind of work
accompanied by the s^ine responsibility.
If the State wants good faithful
woi k, and nobody will deny that
she does, she should paj what the
same class of work receives in private
business, else she will have her business
conducted in such a manner that
wjll socu bring her into disci-edit and
perhaps disgrace.
Mr. Harrison's Do? Bill.
A mom/ the bill-; that have been in
trodnced by the Fairfield delegation is 1
a bill by Representative J. D. Harri- |
sou to tax dogs and apply the revenue j
to the school futid. This his often j
! been bt ought before the Legislature,
aud usually the bare mention of "the
dog law" provokes a smile, but, like
j a great many other things often ridiculed,
it is a sound bill, and we hope
J it will pas?. As our contemporary,
the Columbia jRegister says: 4,'a tax
would improve the breed of dogs by
weeding out the many curs that suck
eggs, kill sheep and run mack with
hydrophobia."
The only obstacle in the way of the
passage of the bill is that it is pro- !
posed to tax dogs one dollar, and this |
- - . _ _ o _
would seem to be unconstitutional as
sec. S6. art. I. S. C. Const., reads:
"All property subject to taxation shall
be taxed in proportion to it-? value." j
The tax might, however, be construed '
as a license for keeping dogs. The
Auditor's books show a return of 1610

by Merit.
Capt. V. E. ATcBee. a native of
Greenville, has be-in made President of
the Greenville and Columbia Railroad,
and of the Charlotte, Columbia and
Augusta Railroad, and he also retains
the superintendency of the "Western
North Carolina, Railroad. It is stated
that the two presidencies were given
to induce him to remain with the R. &
D. Company, he having been offered
a position by the Three C.*s folks.
The combined salaries is about $10,000
a year.
Mr. McBee's promotion is an instance
of the result of merit and grit.
He started in life as a civil engineer
and finding it difficult to obtain employment
in his chosen profession
accepted a position as brakeman on the
Air Line Railroad at $10 per month
about ten years ago. By close attention
to his work he has gradually risen
until now he is numbered among the
big railroad men of the country. His
many friends in his native State congratulate
him on his promotion and
wish him continued success in his
enlarged field of labour.
Let it Alone.
It is to be hoped the Legislature will
not make a call for a Constitutional
Convention. Tlie defects in our constitution
can be corrected much more
readily and at far less expense and
with greater safety than could be ob- j
tained by a convention. No constitti- j
tion can be made elastic enough to suit
the changing conditions of Hie people
except by a gradual process of mollification
by amendments with the con- j
servative feature of having the?ej
amendment? pa>.*td on bv the people j
at ihe ballot box. A constitution can- j
jiui be made out of hand at once itiat j
will last.it mfl>L be built up, not made, j
ai d we have a very good foundation j
already. A new constitution would J
have to be construed many times by
the courts and the labor of the past
twenty-fire years iu that direction
wonkl have to be gone over again.
We can see no ncces&itv fur a convention
and hope the taxpayers will not
h&ve any snch useless expense added to
their alieadr hearv burdens.
More Convenient for ^'airfieldIt.
has been a question ninoug the
lawyers of the Slate whether we have
one or two United Slates Circuit
Courts. The Courts have decided
that there is but one, and the decision
line ln/1 t -1 tha ihl p/irinoliMM /\f a liitl Kv
Senator Butler, giving the State four |
terms of the (Jirenic Court, two at
GieenviTe, one at Columbia and ore
at Charleston. Whether or nut we
have one or two Circuit Court* is ai
matter of great importance to the pco
pie. Although the Supreme Court i
Justice and the ".Judge hare decided j
there is but one, it a matter of doubt j
and one of great dispute, and Senator :
Butler's bill, settling at once the dis- |
puled point, comes iu the nick of time, i
It is often very inconvenient for Fair, i
field people to go over to Greenville,;
and have to pass through Columbia I
where the Court sits?within a short |
distance of home. The bill gives them j
the right of trial in Columbia, and,!
therefore, makes it f-ir more con- i
venicnt.
Haw t? Econojatise.
If the Legislature is reallv in earnest I
in its efforts to reduce taxes, instead of {
creating a rich man's monopoly of the
State House*>ffices, let tliem adopt the
constitutional amendment providing
that the Legislature shall meet every
other year and save the tax paying the
expense of the luxury of "a session"
each year: The session costs the State
about 845,000. This would save in
one year enough to cover the proposed
saving in the State House reduction
for nine or ten years; or $45,000
help out the Clemson College or give
one hundred beneficiaries, (entire extenses
paid,) iu the Univcrsity; or would
support handsomely a college for our
daughters and sweethearts: or it would
o " -- -- .
reduce taxes one-third of a mill. And
ali this good may be gained at the small
sacrifice of losing a session every other
year. What ?ay vou economist?
Economy is like charity should begin
at home.

Legislature which we fully approve
of, is that out which seeks to provide
some mode of ascertaining the names
0/ registered voiers convicted of disqualify
ing crimes and which requires
the supervisor of regi?tration to erase
theii names from the books of registration.
It too of;en happens that
such disqualified persons vote, these
being no convenient mode of ascertaining
their disqualification.
It seems that there were three re
publicans in the Congress who thought
that a inan of God, whatever !?c his
political complexion, was suited to
invoke the divine blessings upon the
deliberations of Congress, and accordingly
the licv. W. U. Miiburn was
re-elected Chaplain or slur lipase.
We have no doubt th-i there will be a
serious need of the dewut and earnest
prau-rs ot this holy man of God and
staunch Democrat.
Skxatok Fori-: proposed to amend
that part of the Constitution of the
State which relates to the associate justices
of the Surpreme Court so that
the Court shall consist of a chief justice
and four associate justices.
We believe the change woidd be a
good one. The concurrence of only
two judges is not sufficient.
